Is it possible to replace the V+ box with an of the shelf DVD/hard disk recorder with inbuilt digital tuners. This would allow recordings to be made directly to DVD which should result in better quality recordings since it cuts out the Digital to analogue and then back to digital process which the V+ box uses. Are there any PC cards which would allow cable TV to be controlled and recorded by a PC
